neal's cultural identity meant, let's say together, nicholas talks about community life on the surface of this research is now on the hello and welcome to this week, focus on here up with the live show. thanks for joining us today will begin today's program in europe. youngest country, comfortable, it was born after years of conflict in the region, and while the economy is growing steadily, the country still relies on foreign aid for many development projects. so it came as quite a shock to affinity. that was shitty when the us government announced that it is essentially shutting down. it's for an agency, us,

a id. it is with american support that they were now doctor and human rights activist was able to provide critical care to her patients in the capital, a peace tina and l square. there are many people who rely on therapy to shield from the atrocities they suffered during a conflict that ravaged the people decades ago. a free me isn't his real name. we've changed it to protect his identity. he was 19 years old when to serve you and policeman rate, and that was more than 25 years ago during the call civil war between ethnic albanians striving for autonomy, a nationalist serves the trauma, he says, has been eating out to him ever since i kept putting off going to the doctor, so it's like my trauma got so bad that i couldn't even walk properly and controls

so it'd be the re, she has been helping him. she's a doctor and founder of the organization, k, r c t. the energetic woman and her 30 employees look after torture survivors over 1300 to date. so do you know that most of them are women who survive sexual abuse or, or organizations work is funded from abroad with a fish coming from u. s. c. i t until recently, shortly after sweeping into the white house for a 2nd term, donald trump proves us the id funding is a huge problem for bushy t feeling miss that 1st it was an incredible shock and you can't really put it into words. the last we learned of the decision on a weekend been to me that forced us to suspend parts of our work for an initial period of 3 months. time a y k r c t is still providing psychological support for women, like susanna. also not her real name. she was read and abused multiple times during the war. it took her years to find the courage to seek help from k r c t.

but even today, she says 26 years later, she still wakes up every night at 1 20 am. the exact time when she was 1st rate from a home from new nutrition. the smallest thing can send us into a downward spiral on the normal medical treatment. psychological support and financial aid are cut off that will spell out disaster for us when they are from, from that on from it all. the people who come here couldn't afford this kind of psychological care themselves, health insurance and costs, if it was limited and health care can be expensive. like a free me, many men were also raped during the war uncomfortable. but to this day, he's the only one willing to talk in front of the camera in comfortable, which is still very conservative. victims of sexual violence face deep rooted sting back to school. i had a lot of problems because i kept it all in the i was introverted,

short tempered. i don't know how to describe it. it was pretty bad. i don't know how i raised my children. being able to speak about it, k r c t helps address the widespread stigmatization of victims. and that's just one example of how the suspension of us the id is affecting costs of, of $1.00 of your reps peruse countries. it was until now also one of the largest recipients of us aid and the western balkans over $500000000.00 in the last 5 years . no cost if it was government is doing what it can to limit the damage by diplomatic means. image of up to understand the most quiet, and then you click on you on the soft day. of course, you know, there's no and you go from and to the us with its own political priorities. um, especially on how to spend tax payers money. that's what i call, hopefully i'm going to context, of course it for me to come up. this doesn't change the strong relationship between

our 2 countries. model bank which extends to many areas how many pets it offers. 3 and some poor, despite repeated requests for an interview with the american embassy, we receive no response. so read the receipt to you is not surprised or trust in the us as being deeply shaken. things used to be different. because i see this is a photo of me with the 1st lady, maloney a trumpet to me, is that some of it on the department to see somebody coming in for 0 set to cut off . that was in march 2018. seen that when the us state department selected 10 women from around the world to present them with an award for their courage and strength and body to, to work on the band with quantifier was one of them missing a tune of function we can do me is my doesn't own knuckle cartoon cartoon at the time. donald trump was the sitting president as of the, from president jeff to us. ruth, she was recently nominated for this year's nobel peace prize by a swedish member of parliament to see me

as far removed from all of this for him. as for so many others, it's literally a matter of survival. without therapy. i couldn't live a minutes longer. not a single minutes smell. like all of us, a widow therapy, we'd go crazy. we can't do without it. the cost of his treatment consumes over half of his pension. a free me certainly can't afford a psychologist. what? no, he doesn't know. he can only hope the, it's a phenomenon, but we're witnessing across europe. many young people are voting for right wing and fluoride parties to understand why we met him. i'll be at the young politician from

the netherlands. she invited us to a networking event for like minded people in the town of long, and there's a similar trend in italy where some young voters say they occur in hard drive. and popular government is not going far enough to protect what they consider to be italy's identity and the culture they are young and the vote for rights. more and more young people in europe are turning to right wing and nationalist parties. what's behind the shift to the rights we are involved since 2020 to be totally has been governed by a right wing nationalist coalition. philipo, however, considered a stem to sell the history student as a member of a neo fascist, used organization. i remember that to the fact that joe, raising the interest amount to politics was the 1st section of the time. yeah, so i'm friends on 2016 because i remember that all the

people said this, i'm a talk about that these fact has a negative surprise. so this is generated my 1st thing to us, and most of most people takes us to the district who's construction was commissions, by the time being dictated to benito, mussolini in the early 1913 so that everything was fab. them to me foretells us pointing to the architecture. as an example. he says utility has to become a strong nation again, that immigration must be stopped and the power of the leads must be broken. for me, it don't exist anymore, right? unless you have the, the police to one side and the single police to other side, especially to defend our, i worry them to the scene as well by the war. the something very difficult preserving their own identity. that's what virginia view the eclipse and its priorities as well. to 21 year old likes to speak about strong women and to be

cruel. they played during the fascist era. we didn't know it takes us into the headquarters of force and all of the neo fascist party. they are getting ready here for a protest. march that is planned, and the next day you enter for to the right i joined force and will probably between 20202021. after the street protests over the anti cobit measures a bit as to own in, you know, when the strong popular resistance against the restrictions was silenced and not the person move. i was the only movement that raised its head and stared to engage in genuine social protest. i felt that i saw that in troubleshot it. we are surprised to virginia has no problem taking to the streets along with well known right wing x from is that she seems committed to fashion an ideology that's defined as all to a nationalist and anti liberal. elizabeth. we meet up with professor cloud tour, oman, and we don't use research and also are of numerous studies on the topic portal.

nonsense. it's dining, co, little historical awareness. sometimes people have human though it is in between these, this young people don't feel right when, because they think i have problems. my generation has big problems that's getting a lot to and we can't get into the economy. the job market is confusing. digitalization is rolling over as we feel we have lost control of our it's due to cov, yeah, having those equal one up, it's this mix of issues and they need an answer for that. this commission is not taught but what are the answers offered by right wing x from is proving so popular . we attend a dinner party on the wrong and in the netherlands, it's hosted by you all the to the daughter of crow. this immigrants move a ride twinkies organization. young voters help the right wing populous cam with the most recent parliamentary elections and then never really lost the country. we re like our history, our identity,

and we like the people here. and we want to see the issue. and it's, it's now becoming less and less you don't know where your neighbors are anymore. people really talk to each other. most of the people who are members of a party called for them for democracy. they are against the you and the euro. they claim that that's identity must be protected from as long as ation has also invited right wing populist from other parts of europe. that'd be amazing. hire, understand that you're from spain striking with how much content to dinner. guest speak about immigrants. the young white when populist are calling for an ethnically homogeneous society. they reject diversity course, email the distance fully behind it, even though her parents are courteously together. since the integrated a 100 percent, she tells us high in promotes her beliefs on social media including conspiracy

and that's why political parties have to have a digital presence degree type because it's going digital and offering concrete solutions. we have learned doing our trip across europe. that is, tablets. parties have to take seriously whole young people feel to get them excited to get involved can fashion bring hope to award torn country? absolutely. say mary, i really look and natasha come in. scott, they are designers from ukraine, and their inspiration comes from traditional local ad tire and to be ongoing war. but do entrepreneurs have made quite a name for themselves in the country, as well as beyond ukraine's borders? they firmly believe that the clothes they manufacture not only tell a story and to help create jobs, but can also increase morale among those not fighting at the front line. the training and made spanish and has become

a symbol of resistance. as designers to fight a war the, the creation celebrate life, despite all the pain and offer a glimmering of lights in times of despair. of the training and fashion designers, natasha and maria are convinced that fashion can inspire hope. they combine traditional crossman shift with modern designs, and i just have dish right now and back to the roots. we want to speak about ukrainian, but in a threatened your way into a you know, as of ways it's going to be understandable from wonder people for a young generation to showcase houses for this can. and you know, be a part of your lifestyle and it's what we are labeled is a success story. traditionally, the tire for ukraine in farm hands inspired an entire world and felt collection

research how to see ages and recreate that something you. it's also resembles, you know, as you want on boys how go looks, etc, but it is all i was before in new brand new and culture as well. and, but, so we would create this is in to, in, in the brain and kind of way. and it's also one of our best sellers, so people buy it another great success for the designer. joe, was when a leading actress and the netflix series many empowers or pajamas from the collection. and thereby help the label make its breakthrough in the international fashion. seeing that don, it definitely works as a, you know, brand of the growth of brand awareness. and so we bring in an international markets as well because i remember the times when we started as data and, or even a 15 years ago. and no one wanted to create and design and designers. it wasn't a fashion, it wasn't a cold. but the times have changed. despite all the grief and pain around them,

ukrainian women wants to dress well and enjoying life. don, are part of us go, says use to buy mostly for and fashion. it was viewed as something valuable. but since 2022, she started appreciating everything ukraine, which more the 1st of the when i browse the shops, i always end up buying ukrainian sessions. and then when i no longer buy mass, produce goods and all my friends, including many foreigners, are always impressed to they always ask me, where did you find that professor such as a green skews no of attacks of the class? no doubt. it's made me women who keep the business running the ukrainian economy along with its thousands of jobs depends on the fashion industry. but it to face the serious challenges. power outages and supply bottlenecks to name the most common we have become stronger, although the war has been going on for 3 years now. and so when they, we always find solutions. despite the difficulties we faced, the style we're trying to become more resilient. we, even though we faced greater difficulty as commercial guy,

mostly it was to it was almost impossible to find trey and stuff at 1st serve as nice as it with many ukrainian women have returned from abroad, says natasha bishop to buy them. but that's so they create a new jobs that are now even expanding for should not be. i'm used to having just 13 people for working here. and they call in all the, this production stuff is like more experimental. so then they have a low dose supply. these ukrainians are finding joy and to find the war as best they can. whether that's by creating trendy apparel or showing it off the runway norway is one of the world leading oil producers. that's things to people like him beyond a caps that used to be an oil worker, a job that helped boost his country's economy, but which also took a huge toll on his physical and mental health. beyond it and his former colleagues

worked on an oil rig in the north seat of the south western city of stop i am and now they are demanding compensation from the government. in this oil platform is a model in a museum down a cop start of norway worked on one like it for 20 years. he doesn't have many good memories at that time. of the 1980s, when he and his cobra credits were happy, truly exposed to toxic substances. i worked on the cranes to to the next. they are exhaust fumes from the turbine engines with blast right in our faces. sometimes we'd have to come back down after just a few minutes knocking stock. can we believe himself uric acid all working on the tanks? that was really bad. they have well, many of us, even through up to the longest bit by age 44 cups. that was unable to work, diagnosed with mental disability. now pensioner,

he can barely remember things. he's quickly overwhelmed even by visitors in his own home. the kind of, i'm always getting busy and i think count, they just leave on the country did go and have a secret time. not doing well. that's a little can get very empty. social is sophia. although former oil rick workers like cups that are called pioneers of norway's oil age, southerners oil museum pays tribute to them. in the 19 seventy's and eighty's, they were hired by the state to extract as much oil and gas from the north seas. they could as quickly as possible, but when workers like cups that started asking for compensation for the damage they'd suffered while working there, please fell on deaf ears and then move the whole time so called experts were making us feel like we were just pretending on the so it was pretty nasty though i see the goodwill. right. not until late 2024 did the majority in norway's parliament vote

to compensate the former oil workers who had been affected by their unsafe working conditions. even so, the government was reluctant to be wary of the prospect of a deluge of loss. and since i've given no apologies, were forthcoming to the if you look at the end long, well, there is some in most sealed. i wish to express my things to these people. they were young in shootings, but as prime minister, i can only offer an apology in certain cases. something we can see if i don't wish to do that here, i'd have to say or know the opposition accused pass governments of prioritizing oil revenues over the health of the oil workers and see the start of our oil age and the 19 seventies and 18. so the government worried that such occurrences might endanger the oil production of the thing is good. they give me less than 2 to make sure we can continue to drill and extract oil for folks. they didn't want to email it to such things as a boy, right? let's elude and discuss them. an issue with this book is a enormous somebody. all this sitting in the north seat. divers did receive
